A study on the “Phenetic analysis of Capsicum annuum L. and Capsicum frutescens L. “ has been conducted from June to August 2012. The aim of the research is to know the relationship amoung big chillis and small chillis based on morphology. The samples were taken from 5 villages in Sukamantri Sub-district, Ciamis. The method used in this research was explorative survey with purposive random sampling. The character data of big chili and small chili morphologies were analyzed descriptively to determine the relationship using UPGMA (Unweighted Pair Group Mean Arithmetic) methods. The result of this study showed that there were seven cultivars of big chilli, namely C. annuum „Hot Chili‟, Gada, Fantastik, Keriting TM 888, Tanjung 2, Keriting TM 999, Hot Beauty, and four cultivars of small chilli namely C. frutescens „Cakra Ungu‟, Cakra Hijau, Bendot, and Cakra Putih. The fenogram showed that there were five groups, two groups of C. annuum and three groups of C. frutescens. The first group consisted of C. annuum „Hot Chili‟, Keriting TM 888, Fantastik, and Tanjung 2. The second group consisted of C. annuum „Gada‟, Hot Beauty, and Keriting TM 999. The third group was C. frutescens „Bendot‟. The fourth group consisted of C. frutescens „Cakra Putih‟, and C. frutescens „Cakra Hijau‟. The fifth group was C. frutescens „Ungu‟. The closest relationship was between C. annuum „Keriting TM 999‟ and C. annuum „Hot Beauty‟ and the farthest relationship was between C. frutescens „Bendot‟ and C. frutescens „Ungu‟.

Fruit curvature is a trait which has been little investigated by botanists and horticulturists. The degree to which a fruit is curved can be accounted for intuitively in cases where there are no physical barriers to normal fruit growth, such as obstruction by plant parts or the soil surface. The curvature of pendant, unobstructed fruit, as in the Solanaceae, has received limited discussion in the literature.

The effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles on seed germination and seedling growth of Capsicum annuum L. were determined in this research. Total phenols content, total flavonoids, and condensed tannins, as well as 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) antioxidant capacity was determined. Results indicated that treatment with zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) improved seed germination rate during the first seven days. The seed vigor germination increased 123.50%, 129.40% and 94.17% by treatment with ZnO-NPs suspensions at 100, 200 and 500 ppm, respectively. The morphological parameters tested revealed that ZnO-NPs treatments did not significantly affect plumule development, but they had a significant impact (p ≤ 0.01) on radicle length. Suspensions at 100, 200 and 500 ppm of ZnO-NPs inhibited seedling radicle growth and promoted accumulation of phenolic compounds, with a phytotoxic effect in this organ. Results suggested that zinc oxide nanoparticles influence seed vigor and seedling development and promoted the accumulation of desirable phenolic compounds in the radicle.

<em>Konsumsi cabai rawit terus meningkat namun produktivitasnya masih rendah, sehingga diperlukan pemuliaan yang mengarah pada perbaikan daya hasil. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis keragaman genetik, korelasi antar karakter, heritabilitas arti luas, dan nilai kemajuan seleksi populasi F3 cabai rawit. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Kebun Percobaan Leuwikopo, IPB, Dramaga, Bogor dan Laboratorium Genetika dan Pemuliaan Tanaman, Departemen Agronomi dan Hortikultura, IPB. Percobaan menggunakan 5 genotipe tetua dan 6 genotipe F3 cabai rawit, dengan genotipe tetua yang diulang sebanyak 3 ulangan dan genotipe F3 tanpa ulangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa karakter bobot buah per tanaman dan jumlah buah per tanaman memiliki keragaman genetik luas pada semua genotipe. Semua karakter pengamatan berkorelasi positif terhadap daya hasil kecuali umur berbunga dan umur panen. Nilai heritabilitas arti luas dengan kriteria tinggi terdapat pada karakter bobot buah per tanaman, bobot per buah, dan panjang buah. Hasil seleksi indeks yang dilakukan menunjukkan kemajuan seleksi yang besar pada karakter bobot buah per tanaman dan jumlah buah per tanaman.</em>
